Montreal's most dangerous intersections for cyclists | This is Montreal | CBC Podcasts | CBC Listen
July is peak season for biking in Montreal. It’s also one of the months when the most cyclists are hit by cars. The numbers show that a handful of intersections account for a large number of collision...

I didn’t know this history about mountain bikes. Enjoyed our day mountain biking in Oka with our old school bikes. RIP and thank you.
Dr Grace S Peng@gspeng.bsky.social · last wk.RIP Charlie “Cunningham called bicycles the “perfect means for ‘right living.’” “They make people healthy and happy, and they free us from the tyranny of cars and the guilt of waste,” he said. “Of course, there’s a time and place for cars, but most of us use them too much.” “ @biketalk.bsky.social

Sarah Dorner@sarahdorner.bsky.social · 2w agoWe stayed in a hotel on the Waterfront on Tuesday (too expensive but it was dog friendly) and we had a view of Biidaasige Park. I was wondering what it was. Now I know. Great example of flood protection.

AI started out as fundamental government funded research. It wasn’t an overnight success. Decades of incremental research trying new pathways forward. It also required innovation in other sectors. Fondly remembering the time @chrisjpal.bsky.social wanted to make a supercomputer with Nintendo 64s.

When the water pipe that ruptured in WeHo was installed in 1916, William Mulholland was chief engineer of L.A.'s water system & Hollywood was producing silent films. Much has changed since then, but many city pipes haven't. We spoke with an expert on L.A.’s aging water system: buff.ly/bONvJ7n

In the US & globally, the majority in every country are worried about climate – but they don’t know what to do about it. And the worse the impacts get, the more they check out. That is why communicating sol’ns is essential. Our brains are wired to move forwards towards something better not worse!
Are we really doomed?
Is it too late to do anything about climate change?

When we weigh the costs of cutting emissions and adapting to climate change, we can't forget to include the costs of NOT acting. Climate-driven damages are costing Canadians billions of dollars every year, and that part of the equation is often forgotten.
Canadian Climate Institute@climateinstitute.bsky.social · 4w agoThe June storms that swept through Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Montreal cost a whopping $1.1B in insured damage. And that’s only a piece of the pie—total costs including uninsured losses and public infrastructure damages are typically at least 3x higher.👇 www.ibc.ca/news-insight...

Weird. I want to know: 1. When and where were samples collected. 2. What and where contaminants were found (this matters!). 3. What did the DRSP (Public Health) say about contamination given this is not permanent housing on a site formerly used to grow food for human consumption.

These attacks are so terrible. I've been highly critical of Ensemble Montréal, but they have come a long way on intercultural relations.
